Patent CA-2351536-A1 (CA)
Title: Therapeutic anti-fungal nail preparation
Inventor: REEVES STANLEY FORREST
IPC: A61K47/34
Filed: 1999-11-15
Abstract: A therapeutic solution and application procedure for curing nail fungus infections or Onychomycosis comprising a combination of an anti-fungal agent with DMSO in an anhydrous solution of Polyglycol, and including a secondary anti-inflammatory agent. The DMSO  acts as a delivery vehicle so that active anti-fungal agents such as Miconazole in combination with an anti-inflammatory compound such as ibuprofen can be delivered directly to fungal infected areas under and around the nail. The DMSO, Miconazole, and ibuprofen are dissolved in a viscous solution of Polyglycol so that the combined ingredients may be applied directly to the affected nails with superior penetration.  The therapeutic solution is formulated by dissolving the Miconazole into the Polyglycol over heat and dissolving ibuprofen into DMSO over additional heat to form a second, and then combining the two solutions together to form the therapeutic solution. Repeated applications of the resulting solution on Onychomycosis infected nails over one 4-6 week period yields satisfactory result rates as high as 85-90 % without augmenting the therapy with systemic drugs. Most versions of the therapeutic solution are anticipated to not require a prescription.

Patent CA-2359583-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MAEDA CHIHARU
IPC: H01J17/24
Filed: 2000-01-17
Abstract: In the flat panel display containing a getter material, the getter material is activated during the sealing step, and is partially consumed, if the getter activation temperature is lower than the sealing temperature. On the other hand, a very small part of the getter material is activated if the getter activation temperature is higher than the sealing temperature. The problems are solved by a process comprising the steps of: providing front and rear glass plates of a flat panel display, both supporting the functional elements which are required for the final display; disposing a flat getter device on one of the glass plates at the position determined in the final display, sealingly joining the two glass plates by means of a glass paste which, upon solidification after first melted at a temperature T1, crystallizes to give rise to a solid having a melting temperature higher than T1; sealingly joining the two glass plates by means of a sealing material which, upon solidification at a temperature T1, gives rise to a solid having a melting temperature higher than T1; baking the thus-produced flat panel display at a temperature higher than T1 while evacuating its inner space through a glass tube left in one of the two glass plates; activating the getter material at a temperature higher than T1; and closing the inner space of the display by "tipping-off" the glass tube.
